Yeah, We Want To Simulate THIS Guy
A couple of weeks ago, we told you about JJ Redick's appearance on the cover of NCAA College Hoops 2K7. Well, it turns out, it's much worse than you thought: They're actually doing the whole mo-cap suit thing to simulate his movements....

Coach K Speaks!
Our long national nightmare is over. We can all rest a bit easier now, because Coach K is finally weighing in on the Duke lacrosse case. Our parents tell us stories of how they feared world events in the 1960s would overwhelm them, and how they would tune in to the CBS news every evening, and things...
The Return Of The Cultural Oddsmaker
One of our favorite features of the late Oddjack was the Cultural Oddsmaker, editor A.J. Daulerio's strange odds on everything you wish you could bet on but can't. (We loved them so much, we even wrote one.) So we are very honored to return them to a wanting nation here at Deadspin, starting today....
Does Redick Have Bigger Worries Than The DUI?
This image, put together lovingly by our friends at Bad Idea Blue Jeans, pretty much sums up reaction to Day 2 of the JJ Redick story: Yep, it's still unbridled glee, all around....
Revisiting The Day's Top Story ... Redick!
So, drinking and driving causes thousands of deaths a year, is extremely dangerous, completely irresponsible and potentially destructive. Drunken driving costs lives, and therefore isn't funny. OK? We're covered here, yes? Good....
JJ Redick ... DUI. Seriously.
Not to pile on here, but we'd say the odds are pretty good this is going to make him cry....
A Lovely Way To Spend Mother's Day
Todd Munson is a Deadspin reader who lives in Los Angeles and — like all good sons — went home to see his mother yesterday, in Omaha, Neb. When he was walking down Dodge Street, the main Omaha drag, he noticed the word "WHORE" on a sign hanging from the pedestrian bridge just above....
Duke DNA Bomb Drops
The news broke early yesterday evening; There was no DNA match of any of the Duke lacrosse players with evidence collected from the accuser in the rape case.

The Gruesome Duke Lacrosse Details
Some new developments in the Duke lacrosse team case, which appears to have "tipped" in the last 24 hours; we just saw it featured on our local afternoon news, and we're nowhere near Durham....
In Case You Need Just A LITTLE More Duke Hate
Yes, yes, we know that Duke has been out of the tournament for coming up on a week now, and yes, we know that everybody loves George Mason and that's all that really matters. But that doesn't mean people have satiated their bloodlust for Duke hatred. Witness, this video from a bored student having f...
Duke Lacrosse Team On The Brink
We touched on this briefly last week, but it merits rementioning: The Duke University men's lacrosse team is in serious trouble. If you missed the details of the case, a student at North Carolina Central University was hired to dance for various members of the team at a "small bachelor party." The...
The Top Hoops Programs Of All Time
Here's a little something to argue about before we get started with the actual basketball today. TenMojo.com has attempted to rank the Top 10 college basketball programs of all time. And it's not some half-ass list based on foggy notions, which is how I'd prefer to do it. They actually have reason...
Live Report From The Atlanta Regional
William Hocutt, whom you've read about in these parts before, was in Atlanta for both the Duke-LSU and West Virginia-Texas games last night, and, even though he's a Duke fan, he pulled himself together to file a report from the scene for us....
It Gets The Feelings Out
The question has been asked by sports fans for a while now, and it's tough to get a straight answer: Is it all right to cry? Howard Stern's old radio show once ran a montage of celebrities crying in public, and though the sentiments were sincere enough, it was difficult to hear the clips without h...
